One of my good buddies does something along those lines. Month on month off type of thing. You gotta be really comfortable on boats though. Being on one for weeks at a time so far away from land is harder than it sounds.

eh it's alright for me right now, def not a career. 3 weeks at a time up here away from home kinda sucks. but then again, 3 weeks off at a time is pretty sweet.
